Hey friends! It's been a long time since I posted one of these, I know. I strayed away from too many weekly memes for a while, but now I'm kind of heading back towards them because I've just been too busy to write whole posts all the time. I'm in desperate need of a quiet weekend where I can draft a bunch of things to post at random times again :). My cache has been depleted.

Anyway, let's talk books! I'm so excited for Emergency Contact by Mary H.K. Choi, and the best part is that I actually was lucky enough to receive a review copy! Better still... I have one to give away. So keep on reading friends, because I'd love to give it you.

For Penny Lee high school was a total nonevent. Her friends were okay, her grades were fine, and while she somehow managed to land a boyfriend, he doesn’t actually know anything about her. When Penny heads to college in Austin, Texas, to learn how to become a writer, it’s seventy-nine miles and a zillion light years away from everything she can’t wait to leave behind.

Sam’s stuck. Literally, figuratively, emotionally, financially. He works at a café and sleeps there too, on a mattress on the floor of an empty storage room upstairs. He knows that this is the god-awful chapter of his life that will serve as inspiration for when he’s a famous movie director but right this second the seventeen bucks in his checking account and his dying laptop are really testing him.

When Sam and Penny cross paths it’s less meet-cute and more a collision of unbearable awkwardness. Still, they swap numbers and stay in touch—via text—and soon become digitally inseparable, sharing their deepest anxieties and secret dreams without the humiliating weirdness of having to see each other.

So, let's be honest with one another. Are you as excited to read this book as I am? I love awkward friendships to romances, and the kind of characters who are too real at times. I honestly can't wait to dive in.
